I am pretty sure I will get either the 5DS or the 5DSR, but I don't know enough about which one to get and can't find that much information online about the low-pass filter. I've read a few places that with enough resolution, the low-pass filter is less useful. I'm still leaning towards the 5DS though because I read one post that showed the color issues without a low-pass filter. So, if you are going to buy one of the new camera bodies for sure, which one are you leaning towards?

It seems to me that people have strong preferences for the size of camera bodies when it comes to built-in grip (1D style) vs. no grip (5D style). I've read a few posts about people hoping the next big megapixel camera will come with a grip and I've read many posts about people hoping for no grip.

So I'm wondering...based on the following assumptions, whether more people desire a grip or more people desire no grip.

The next high MP body will be greater than $5,500 but no more than $7,500

You can afford to spend $5,500 to $7,500 on a body.

You are willing to spend $5,500 to $7,500 on a body (regardless of grip or no grip).

The next high MP body will have greater than 40MP

The next high MP body will be available for purchase by the end of CY2013

There are no new high MP bodies announced from Nikon by the end of CY2013

The next high MP body has similar or same specs as the 1Dx but is limited to 5 fps.

Please only vote if you meet all the above criteria/assumptions. i.e. If you cannot afford or are not willing to spend $5,500 to $7,500 on a camera body, then please do not vote.

I haven't seen any information on the launch of the other EOS M colours. B&H only has black and I haven't been able to even find a concrete launch date for black. I'd like to get a white one for my wife so if anyone has information about colour availability in North America, that would be great.
